Embrace this type of failure, science says. Train your brain to work creatively with gen AI. Three ways to lead learning.
Welcome to a new issue of the newsletter, “Journal of discoveries.”
Each week, I check a list of hundreds of sources of inspiration to spot exciting articles, videos, podcasts, and books on personal development, leadership, management, technology, and innovation.
While this newsletter will remain a free resource, you might consider becoming a paid subscriber to support my work, and get access to my searchable Notion database. Thanks!
And now, let’s dive in!
One “must” for this week
"Embrace this type of failure, science says" by Andrea Wojnicki.
Not all failures are created equal. Some should be avoided at all costs, while others are essential for progress. As Amy Edmondson explains, the key lies in distinguishing between them.
We all fail and make mistakes.
But the secret is to embrace intelligent risks—those where we stand to learn something crucial, even if we don’t succeed right away. In this way, failure is more than just a learning opportunity; it’s essential feedback that drives innovation.
